Kudos “OPEN” Magazine

The editorial team of the OPEN magazine needs to be appreciated for their daring yet excellent work regarding the publication of the Niira Radia tapes of 2G Scam. It showed the spine to publish it in a meaningful manner though OUTLOOK also published few conversations, in an edited manner notwithstanding. All media, except them, chose not to give any coverage for this issue. If anybody published anything later, they all are compelled by the pressure from the public that stemmed from the publication of transcripts by OPEN.

It needs to be probed at to what were the real motives of the media groups to shroud it completely. It is not because of the fear of loss of advertisement revenue, crystal clear. Advertisement is given not out of charity. Advertisers want reach and if media have circulation/viewership, then even hostile advertisers would come with advertisements to whatever media for their own benefit. Hence the argument of advertisement loss will not cut ice. It is speculated that the recorded transcripts number more than 5000 centering around 50 persons and there it lays the real reason for the powerful media groups’ exceptional behavior to conceal everything.
